Christian Heimes 9942f42a93 bpo-45522: Allow to disable freelists on build time (GH-29056) Freelists for object structs can now be disabled. A new ``configure`` option ``--without-freelists`` can be used to disable all freelists except empty tuple singleton. Internal Py*_MAXFREELIST macros can now be defined as 0 without causing compiler warnings and segfaults. Signed-off-by: Christian Heimes <christian@python.org>		2021-10-21 06:12:20 -07:00
